There are also chapters relating events about Saint [[Germanus of Auxerre]] that claim to be excerpts from a (now lost) biography about this saint, a unique collection of traditions about [[Saint Patrick]], as well as a section describing events in the North of England in the sixth and seventh centuries which begins with a paragraph about the beginnings of [[Literature of Wales (Welsh language)|Welsh literature]] (ch. 62):
: At that time, Talhaiarn Cataguen was famed for poetry, and [[Aneirin|Neirin]], and [[Taliesin]] and Bluchbard, and Cian, who is called Guenith Guaut, were all famous at the same time in British poetry.
==Associated works==
There are a number of works that are frequently associated with the ''Historia Brittonum'', in part because some of them first appear with the text preserved in the Harleian manuscript, and partly because whenever the ''Historia Britonum'' is studied, these sources eventually are mentioned.
*The ''[[Lebor Bretnach]]''. A [[Goidelic languages|Gaelic]] translation of ''Historia Brittonum'', and a recension of the 'Nennian' ''Historia Brittonum''.
*The ''[[Annales Cambriae]]''. This is a [[chronicle]] consisting of a series of unnumbered years, from AD 445 to 977, some of which have events added. Two notable events are next to AD 516, which describes The Battle of Badon, and [[537]], which describes the [[Battle of Camlann]], "in which Arthur and [[Mordred]] fell." A version of this was used as a starting point for later Welsh Chronicles.
*Welsh [[genealogy|Genealogies]]. One of many collections of Welsh genealogies, this documents the lineage of [[Hywel Dda]], king of Wales, and several of his contemporaries. The [[Pillar of Eliseg]] is frequently discussed in connection with these genealogies.
*Anglo-Saxon Genealogies. This is a version of a collection of the genealogies of five pre-Viking kingdoms -- [[Bernicia]], [[Deira (kingdom)|Deira]], [[kingdom of Kent|Kent]], [[Kingdom of the East Angles|East Anglia]], and [[Mercia]] -- better known in its independent form.
